@st0le Can you please try the Windows build from here?
https://github.com/johnlindquist/kitapp/releases/tag/v1.40.1
I need more details:
Are you an admin on your machine? Are you on a VPN? Is there anything on your machine that you think might interfere with an app?
We have many Windows users using it without any issues. So I'll need help trying to reproduce what's different about your machines.
- Yes. I am admin of machine.
- No, I am not running VPN.
- Nothing is interfering with machine. I am running multiple Node projects.
I was facing issue with installation. Came across this GitHub issue. Removed everything from previous install. Went ahead with your instruction with updated version. Same issue persist.
@UnitedWithCode Does the install get far enough to see any logs?
%USERPROFILE%.kit/logs/kit.log %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Kit\logs\main.log %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Kitlogs\update.log
Do you see the splash screen when you install, or does it fail before anything happens?
Hello!
I was having problems with the installation but after checking the logs in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Kit\logs\main.log y noticed that there was an error in the installation of node.
The error was:
[2023-01-12 09:42:27.217] [error] Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, rename 'C:\Users\isman\.knode\node-v16.17.1-win-x64' -> 'C:\Users\isman\.knode\bin'
After that, I renamed manually the folder node-v16.17.1-win-x64 to bin and relaunch the install process and it looks like it is working now.
Hopes that it helps you in the process of debugging
@ismanapa Awesome, thanks for debugging and letting me know the fix. Super helpful since I wasn't able to reproduce. I'll see what I can do fix the setup process for future users.
